ABSTRACT:
A force-delivering tool such as a log splitter wherein a pusher member carried on a cylinder is forced against a blade carried on a frame to which the piston is secured. The cylinder is driven relative to the piston by means of a reciprocating plunger carrying a cup on the end that forces fluid past a one-way valve ahead of the piston. Oil is pressurized by both the bottom of the cup and its annular end but, when resistance is encountered to build up pressure, a relief valve evacuates the annular chamber so that all the force is concentrated in the area at the bottom of the cup. The entire actuating valve may be backed away to relieve pressure as desired or at the completion of a desired stroke.
